Message: <blockquote data-quote="Darklone" data-source="post: 4116350" data-attributes="member: 1372">Bard archer as mentioned above: Could someone provide a link to the Inspire Courage optimisation thread?The short things are: Song of the White Raven and one or more warblade levels to start Inspire Courage as Swift action. Song of the Heart from the Eberron campaign setting for +1. There's a level 1 spell in the Complete Series that adds another +1. And IIRC an item in the MIC for another +1.Later take the Devoted Performer feat with some paladin levels. Paladin spellcasting might be interesting too with the Practised Spellcaster feat, take the Battle Blessing feat (Complete Champion), buy some pearls of power and cast Divine Favor as swift actions.Max Charisma (all stat increases there and buy a +6 item ASAP). Take Power Attack and Divine Might. The Bow of Songs from the MIC allows you to add your Cha modifier to attack and damage rolls with that bow for one round at the cost of one bardic music use per day.You need all the archer feats like Point Blank Shot, Rapid Shot and Precise shot... and now we are pretty feat starved.Let's assume human as race. Level 1 warblade: good hitpoints, Song of the White Raven and Point Blank Shot feats (if someone with the books might check this...)level 2 and 3: bard and paladin and take Devoted Performer.Take three or four more paladin levels.feats at level 6, 9 and 12: Rapid Shot, Power Attack and Divine Might.That way at level 14 you'll shoot probably 4 arrows with Rapid Shot, plus one arrow with Haste... with Inspire Courage you'll have about +4 or +5 to hit and to damage, your Cha mod to hit and to damage with the Bow of Songs and additionally your Cha mod to damage with Divine Might.</blockquote>
